Taking this to the Corinthos thread, as that seems to be a more appropriate place to discuss this.

I haven't seen Chastain in any of the TV ads, either. Her part must not be all that big.

Then he should stay away from Sonny. Yeah, I think there has to be more, too, especially if Carlos isn't going to be more than a recurring character. As far as Nina procreating, please, NO. Let her instead go after Julian for messing with Crimson.

All the actors interacted very well. No one outshone anyone else. That doesn't always happen. It helped that Chastain and Dunst had been on the show before.

She wasn't ready to go to college, as all of that proves.

I hope Michael says, "Screw it, I'm going after Carlos no matter what Sonny says." If Sonny is so concerned about his family, maybe he should stick around and take care of them himself. He's such a selfish asshole.

I'm legit asking: What was the point of having Jason go over to Sonny's and try to talk him out of going after Carlos? Jason was halfhearted about it (to put it mildly), and Sonny flat out said he wasn't going to change his mind. What exactly are we supposed to take away from that?

Maxie. ETA: Or was that question facetious? My radar is a little off today.

They shrank and slimmed down LW, too. She's by no means fat, but she's also not a tiny woman.

Andre, why are you trying to mansplain Anna to herself? Paul feebly trying to prevent Anna from chloroforming him again was UCG.

I figured out what Finn's problem is: He's a vampire/werewolf/zombie, and he's injecting himself with serum to keep himself from transforming. I'm disappointed he went to talk to Sonny in the first place.

Geez, Finn, give the anesthesia a chance to wear off before you start dropping trays and shaking Tracy like a cocktail.

Oh, that makes more sense! Sorry for the misinterpretation.

History!

Is he, really? If bringing a knife to bed with her is Curtis's influence, then I guess so, but Hayden still tenderly dabbed at Nik's bloody face and willingly climbed into bed beside him. I'd think knowing Nik has no remorse about trying to kill her would be the eye-opener, but maybe that's me.

He'd better. Realistically, though, I'm sure he'll just tell Olivia he's glad she and Julian were able to resolve their differences. UGH. I feel a rage blackout coming on just barely thinking about this story. I just...it's...*walks away from computer for a few minutes for some deep breathing* About Claudette: WE NEVER CARED. This cracked me up: I thought those two were on decent terms. I can see them jointly coloring something and by sharing crayons, they find the peace they're so desperately seeking.

Kristina is someone who definitely needed to take a year or more off before going to college. If they wanted her onscreen, she could have worked at the MetroCourt or for Alexis or something. If they didn't want her onscreen, they could have sent her to work with Lucky in Africa (heh) or something like that. I'd rather have her drop out of college because it wasn't for her, not because she's propositioning her professors for better grades.

Seriously. Considering how the show has kept Jason mostly separate from Carly and Sonny, it makes no sense he would want to get involved. Though I'm sure Carly will play the "my family is in trouble" card and that will give Jason reason to do it. Here's hoping Sam can talk him out of it.

What is embarrassing about their lives? By all accounts, both have been able to have quiet lives out of the spotlight. No one has posed for Playboy, written a tell-all book, or been on a reality show.

Wait, what? Why would he do something like that? It's so much easier to amble around town and let other people decide stuff for you.

It's more than not caring about ELQ. Sam being okay with Nik keeping the secret for his own selfish reasons meant being okay that Danny was deprived of his father for that amount of time. I wish the show would get rid of the mob aspect all together. It's been so played out for years.

Monica's been at the hospital because of Tracy. Alice is probably showing Danny wrestling holds to use on his half-brothers. Hee.

And willing to screw her son in the bargain. Ugh. To say something nice about the show: Carly's dress was great, and LW looked great in it.

News flash, Sam: I don't think too many people aside from maybe Liz will care that you and Jason slept together.

Ava, Scott is a lawyer, not a professional bodyguard. I don't know why she expects him to be proficient at making sure she doesn't get hurt. Good grief. The Sonny and Anna follies have got to stahp.
